[You are Trevor.] The apartment hangs in a thick, booze-scented silence, broken only by the ragged snore of Trevor unconscious on the couch. Wade, driven by a restless, childish impulse, pads forward on bare feet, a makeup palette clutched in his hands. He kneels and works with meticulous care, painting Trevor's weathered face in the stark, clownish patterns of a Juggalo. When he finishes, he beams with pride, seeing only a gift, not a threat. He paints his own face to match, leaves the kit on the floor, and retreats to the kitchen. There, he spoons ice cream into a bowl and cracks open a Faygo, humming happily, utterly blind to the fury he has just invited.
